I love your dye job, colors are very subtle, but Pyre dye make your look more vibrant :)
Armor combination is rather overused, but it's nothing bad for me ^^
I can feel spring at your screens, and damn Bambi :D

Yay thanks for the vote! :)
I'm happy that you like the dye job, as that is the main "contribution" of this look.

Agree on the armour mix not being the most original one, but your dyes are really beautiful! Orange Frost really works beautifully here
Also here pretty screens ^^ and damn, that deer butt :p

I like the overall look despite the repetitive pieces. But what can we say? They are good, of course they will be overused.
But I think you could do some small changes.
In the glove, I think you should swap the blue and the yellow. In the pants and chest you use yellow for the borders and blue for the inner part, but in the glove you do the oposite and in my opinion it looks a bit weird (principally in the left hand).
I don't really dig that shoulder piece. With the carapace chest upper part, I think it would work better with no shoulder at all.
Also, as a minor, you problably want to look unto another boot. Winged boots is a very nice piece and fit well with the other parts you used, however you said in your description that the armor was chosen to be the less restrictive possible and having a heeled boot goes against that. Maybe a boot that don't have a thin heel such as Bladed, Aprentice, Diviner or Ascalonian Performer if you want to use a long boot instead of shoes.

"Lore: She's a DPS mesmer (sword), therefore her clothing choice is one that makes her movement unrestricted."

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. As if people don't go for half-naked looks for any reason but boneritis. Shy Blue and Pyre are quality dye choices though.

@Cuddy93 .... how anyone can get "boneritis" from pixels is still a mystery to me lol Ill never understand it!

This is a good look ... and I agree with everything that has already been said ... yeah its overused but its some of the best light armor in the game! Love that you went for the nude look makes the other armor peices stand out better :D Ill try not to get a boner while I give you gold!

Oh, at least with a secondary reason we can be picky about the other pieces instead of "roll as skimpy as you can and never look back".

Agree as well that the armour choice is not really the most original or rare one but I really like the dyes you used I am a sucker for everything goldish with a touch of blue. Looks elegant and royal!
I also like your screens especially the one with the deer cracked me up xD

The colour on the left glove actually annoys me as well. However, swapping the blue and yellow (pyre) will also change the colour on the right that I think already looks good (and is the bigger piece of the gloves). Alternatively, maybe I can remove the yellow altogether.

Also, I actually like the shoulder piece, I think it's simple yet provides some sort of robust-look to the upper body. But on the other hand, I also agree with you and sometimes I play with the shoulder being hidden.

Good catch on the boots though! I never really realised the thin-heel of the boots!

Isn't that another good reason for the clothing?
To mesmerise your enemies and render them incapable of fighting ;)

I'm too! I especially love using gold lining in my armor pieces. As you said, it makes them look elegant and royal.

I was actually quite lucky to have obtained my Pyre dye (which was close to 100 gold at TP back then) from an Unidentified Dye. I've been using it extensively ever since.

I'm kinda familiar with these pieces because I have a look that share many of them (http://gw2style.com/look.php?id=10426), except that my dig is red and not blue.
